CRW to PGM Conversion: FAQ
What are CRW files?
The CRW format is used for creating and storing RAW images using some Canon cameras. RAW images are often favoured by photographers because when shooting in RAW mode the lens captures images that are as close as they can get to what you see with your naked eye. Moreover, they can be strongly edited using digital post-processing and allow a high degree of control for the photographer in what concerns aspects such as color, saturation and filters. However, RAW files can be up to 6 times bigger than JPEG files, thus being difficult to transfer and store.
What are PGM files?
The PGM or Portable Graymap format is part of a package of open source graphics programs called Netpbm. Other Netpbm formats include PPM (Portable Pixmap) and PBM (Portable Bitmap), also known under the collective name of PNM (Portable Anymap). A PGM file includes a grayscale image, can work on a UNIX platform, as well as on Windows or Mac OS X, and can render a scope of up to 255 grayscale colors.
